Research interests

Engineering properties and the provision of relevant datasets fundamental to engineering projects across the UK.

geohazards, particularly slope stability (landslide) and shrink-swell clay, with particular reference to future climate change and the multiple effects of compound geohazards such as flooding and landslides.
